No real changes from the Wanadoo services, but the big news is that Orange Pay Monthly customers (on £30+ talk plans) can get the 2Gb capped, ≤8Meg, £17.99 service for nowt :)

Now, Orange (Wanadoo) do an uncapped service for £27.99. It'd be nice if they'd apply the same discount to this, but there's no mention on the site... Anyone with some inside information (I'm looking at you, Dolph ;)) care to shed some light?

LOL it aint free, seeing as you rpaying them £30 a month anyways for a 2gb capped service with 8mb speed....nice try orange...altho i can see a few numpties out there getting caught out by this....

ooooh look free broadband service
Really is it free??
Yup as long as your an orange customer paying £30 a month then its free
Ummmm no its not free...your paying £30 per month for a 2gb capped service
Ohhh i see....hmmmm

Ultimately you are paying for the service as far as i can see...via your monthly line rental ;):p...nothing in this world is free lads
Getting caught by what, exactly? you're paying them the same £30+ a month for the phone service you're already getting, and getting a £17.99 service tacked on for nowt. For goody, and other people in his situation, it's a cracking deal :)

I just want to know it they're offering the same discount on their proper service :p ;)

If you want the broadband max package, instead of the 2gb capped one, you can have it for £10 a month (instead of £28) if you would qualify for the free capped broadband.

And as already said, the only 'catch' if you like is that you have to commit on your orange phone contract, but other than that (and given that most people are contracted for one length of time or another) it's a good deal, especially as you get the wifi router (the livebox) and wireless and talk included with free evening and weekend calls (to landlines) on the livebox with the standard package and free calls on the livebox to landlines and orange phones with the max package.

It may not suit everyone, some people may not like it, but not every deal is for everyone.

Cheers, mate, just the info I was after. My 12 months is up at the end of september, so the money I save on this can go towards my upgrade :D
 
Eh? Miss the point much? :p

£30 on your phone contract, (which you'd be paying anyway) for £18.99 off their broadband service...


I completely agree that the 2Gb capped service is cack ;) that's why I'm glad the offer applies to the uncapped service too :)
